It should be a crime that Dell does not already include this in their motherboard considering that maintaining safe regulator temps is so crucial in MB longevity. Install was easy. Two thermal pad tapes to remove and two screws to screw in on the motherboard slot. I felt the heatsink after normal use and they were extremely hot! Imagine if I did had not installed this.

When I swapped a CPU on a Costco Dell XPS, the MB threw a no VRM heatsink error. This VRM did the trick of allowing booting again.

I have a dell, XPS 8940 desktop that did not come with this heat sink. After I installed it, it made a huge difference with lowering the overall temps and reduced my fans from throttling up. For the price it is definitely worth it. I have an aftermarket CPU fan that is larger than the fan that came with it and I was able to easily install this heat sink. It’s as simple as peeling back the tape and pressing down over the vram. I would definitely recommend this to those that own a Dell XPS desktop computer.

This fits perfectly in my Dell XPS 8940. I upgraded my Dell with this, along with cpu and case fans, and it has reduced the temperature significantly.

Good for keep the computer VRAM cooler then with nothing that came with the Dell XPS computer. Dell should be supplying these things.

After I upgraded my i5 CPU, I received a Voltage Regulator Fault. Fortunately this Heatsink fixed the fault.

Bought this for my Dell G5 5000. I upgraded from a i5 processor to a i9 and started to get "No VRM Heat sink Errors" on POST.. This resolved the issue and fit like a charm.Delivery was also super fast, took only a few days and I live in the middle of no where.

Install took about a minute. Remove the protective tape first. Dropped VRM temp from 63 C to 53 C at idle. I didn't do any stress test temp monitoring, but 10 deg C at idle is a good indicator that this is going to help quite a bit. I have the i7-11700 (not the 'K') version. Will be upgrading the CPU heatsink soon.Only negative is that it is a little pricey.

These are super hard to get from Dell or elsewhere and are important if you're using a "tower style" cooler on your XPS 8940. The fit is perfect and they keep the VRM's nice and cool. Recommended.
